With Wave Two enforcement confirmed for November 10, 2026, the first priority is knowing exactly where you stand. MPC analyses your bill of materials at the sub-component level — not just the material level where most reviews stop. We identify which product lines carry licensing risk under Wave One and Wave Two, at what severity, and what the timeline pressure is.
Our work supports management teams and boards facing complex supply chain decisions under constrained timelines. We help clarify exposure, structure procurement and partnership strategies, and assess realistic options across the full value chain.
In the context of Wave Two, supply chain analysis is no longer a strategic exercise — it is an operational necessity. MPC analyses industrial sectors and critical supply chains with a focus on structural risk, resilience, and long-term viability across upstream, midstream, and downstream segments.
Our support typically includes: commercial and market strategy development, offtake and long-term supply-contract support, bespoke market and exposure studies, and pre-feasibility and feasibility support.
Most organisations that need a Wave Two exposure review, supply chain options assessment, or strategic activation programme do not have the internal resource to run one. Existing teams are already running the business. MPC solves this directly.
We embed as the dedicated project resource — working inside your organisation with a clear mandate, senior accountability, and the rare earth commercial, policy, and supplier qualification expertise that internal teams typically do not have. No recruitment. No headcount. No handover risk.
Embedded mandates typically include:
We also provide incremental senior capacity alongside existing teams — covering dimensions that most organisations do not have internally, for as long as the engagement requires.
China’s MOFCOM export control regulations are complex. Most organisations have legal teams who can read them. Very few have the rare earth commercial and value-chain expertise to translate them into what they actually mean for supply contracts, licensing obligations, dual-use classifications, technology transfer risk, and end-use documentation requirements.
MPC provides that translation — and goes further. We build a structured short / medium / long-term mitigation roadmap that converts regulatory analysis into sequenced, actionable programme activity:
For global organisations, the roadmap is built around the full landscape of international support programmes — because the mitigation activities that matter most are those that are fundable and policy-supported:
MPC has institutional relationships across all of these programmes and has delivered EUR 600K in EU Horizon funding for a previous client. We do not just identify the programmes — we support the application, the stakeholder engagement, and the funded execution.
Accessing EU, US, Japanese, and Australian critical materials funding programmes is not primarily a paperwork problem. It is a project structuring, partner selection, and process management problem — and most organisations have no dedicated internal resource for any of it.
MPC takes on the entire process as your dedicated programme resource:
Programmes covered across four jurisdictions:
EUR 600K in EU Horizon funding secured for a previous client. Active institutional relationships at ERMA, EIT RawMaterials, and DG GROW. We do not identify programmes and hand over a report. We set up, manage, and deliver the process.
